Re: choke
my truck is already electric choke equipped. I was talking about the actual choke assemblies themselves, whether they were easy to pull offf the manual one and replace it with the electric model.

Re: choke
Well what carb is it? And why you wanna get rid of the manual choke, that thing's a pretty much guaranteed start up during the coldest of winter!

Re: choke
Leave it manual. I'm going to be ripping the useless electric off very soon from mine. (IME) they're a failure point on the Q-jets.
